I Want To Cut

I just want to scream.
This silence makes the pounding of my heart even louder.
I'm breaking down.
I find old thoughts and memories underneath my nails,
and I want to cut them off.
And I want to cut off my ears too,
a strange artistic craving, I know.
Maybe then I'll be able to shut out,
the hate that I hate to hear,
and I hate to feel.
Stuck in a room too small for me,
my anger, my sadness, my hopelessness is overwhelming.
I talk to myself,
I make myself cry.
My words paint a horrible picture.
Words can be dangerous, even fatal.
I want to cut off my tongue,
so that I can not utter anything I will regret.
Then I can be happy with myself.
Tomorrow feels so far away,
and I can't see past the white film that blinds me from reality.
The shadows I see and the footsteps I hear,
don't tell me its just the wind.
I can see the flashing lights and the tortured souls,
and it sickens me.
I want to cut my eyes out.
Then I will not be able to see what saddens me.
I can smell the disgust inside of me,
the grime that covers,
my heart,
my lungs,
my mind.
I want to cut everything.

I randomly picked a poem out of your page and just had to comment. This is eerily remniscent of the short story "The Yellow Wallpaper" by Charlotte Gilman about feeling entrapped and just needing to break out. Finding old thoughts and memories underneath your nails and wanting to cut them off... that grabbed me, it's genious.
